While preparing my next campaign, my roomate and I finally came to a logical solution to the question of whether or not they could stack. We have reached the logical conclusion that they cannot. The reason being that bones are naturally porous, thus giving the lacing material something to bond to physically. If the bones have become more dense (w/o becoming bulkier) then they are no longer as porous and the lacing cannot bond to the bones. This finally gives a reasonable answer as to why you can't stack the damage bonuses, but prevents you from stacking the defense as well. I can live with that. Can you?
